§ 73.5005 Filing of long-form applications.
(a) Within thirty (30) days following the close of bidding and
notification to the winning bidders, unless a longer period is
specified by public notice, each winning bidder must submit an
appropriate long-form application (FCC Form 301, FCC Form 346, or FCC
Form 349) for each construction permit or license for which it was the
high bidder. Long-form applications filed by winning bidders shall
include the exhibits required by § 1.2107(d) of this chapter
(concerning any bidding consortia or joint bidding arrangements);
§ 1.2110(j) of this chapter (concerning designated entity status, if
applicable); and § 1.2112 of this chapter (concerning disclosure of
ownership and real party in interest information, and, if applicable,
disclosure of gross revenue information for small business applicants).
(b) The long-form application should be submitted pursuant to the rules
governing the service in which the applicant is a high bidder and
according to the procedures for filing such applications set out by
public notice. When electronic procedures become available for the
submission of long-form applications, the Commission may require all
winning bidders to file their long-form applications electronically.
(c) An applicant that fails to submit the required long-form
application under this section, and fails to establish good cause for
any late-filed submission, shall be deemed to have defaulted and shall
be subject to the payments set forth in 47 CFR 1.2104(g).
(d) An applicant whose short-form application, submitted pursuant to
§ 73.5002(b), was not mutually exclusive with any other short-form
application in the same service, or whose short-form application was
mutually exclusive only with one or more short-form applications for a
noncommercial educational broadcast station, as described in 47 U.S.C.
397(6), shall submit an appropriate long-form application within thirty
(30) days following release of a public notice identifying any such
non-mutually exclusive applicants. The long-form application should be
submitted pursuant to the rules governing the relevant service and
according to any procedures for filing such applications set out by
public notice. The long-form application filed by a non-mutually
exclusive applicant need not contain the additional exhibits,
identified in paragraph (a) of this section, required to be submitted
with the long-form applications filed by winning bidders. When
electronic procedures become available, the Commission may require any
non-mutually exclusive applicants to file their long-form applications
electronically.
